Ricardo Arjona, is another of the Latin artists who has raised her voice for the victims of the earthquake last week in Haiti and left thousands homeless.

Through a letter sent by the office of Guatemala, Arjona urges his followers to send financial support to the country, which currently requires international assistance.

"Nature has strange ways of complaint. The historical neglect to which it was subjected to Haiti by the international community now calls attention to the only thing worse that could happen to a people accustomed to suffering, "begins the letter from the singer of" How it hurts. "

"Haiti needs all of us more than ever, but we do not forget that we always needed, it is not cover only at this time with a veil of goodwill the disaster happened, it is aware that without the basics, without the forgiveness of debts, without the participation of all in order to stand up to this country and stay with them without leaving typical when the storm passes, "the famous singer.

"By this means, I call upon the international community to deal with Haiti and that this catastrophe is the starting point for build a solid foundation which will make this people that has never made it, which is to be able to meet basic needs that deserve any inhabitant of this planet. I raise a prayer for the repose of the thousands of Haitians were killed. I sympathize with you at this moment and I urge the international community and the powerful countries that although his altruistic work this time is invaluable not end with the burial of the dead and the delivery of food. To continue to make this country a decent place for their children and for the world to which it belongs, "wrote the artist.

In alliance with the Dominion winery argentina del Plata, the Guatemalan singer launched Holy Sin, a wine with the name of its popular song.

It is not the first artist bets on the wine market, nor will be the last. Gérard Depardieu, with its own winery, is an example for many others. But that Ricardo Arjona has benefited from the success of Santo Pecado, one of his most famous songs, to launch a wine, surely will have many imitators whether the project amiss.

The idea was born in 2000 in Argentina, "a bohemian night," according to Susana Balbo, winemaker and owner of Dominion del Plata, the winery associated with the project Arjona. The specialist assured El Periodico de Guatemala that the wine was produced from a harvest "good target".

As it could not be otherwise, the launch of Santo Pecado took place in the homeland of singer-songwriter, although its three varieties (two inks and pink) are marketed primarily in Argentina and Mexico.

The first version of Santo Pecado costs about 25 dollars, while the winery is preparing a premium that will range from 80 to 100 dollars a bottle. The revenue will be allocated to the Foundation Adentro, which Arjona created to help street kids.
